Thanks for clicking on this page! This is our effort to consolidate all our many sign-up links, so you can find them easily. We encourage advance sign-up for our events, so we can plan effectively and be sure to have a seat at the table for everyone. Each event has a “click here” for the sign-up sheet. In most cases, you can also click on the heading for the event.

If any of these sign-up forms don’t work for you or your computer, you can always sign up by calling the church office (508-877-2050) or emailing pastor@edwardschurch.org.

 

Opportunities to contribute to the ministry of Edwards Church

Stewardship: What we do matters!

We are so grateful for the many ways you support Edwards Church. Your financial support enables us to support our staff and programs, maintain our beautiful campus, and fulfill our mission. If you are able to make a pledge for 2025, it helps us budget faithfully and effectively.

The Stewardship Team invites you to view the letter that was sent out recently, the tools to help you make a decision, the giving card, and a confidential google form if you’d like to make your pledge on-line.

 

Second Adults for Faith formation

We are looking for volunteers to be the Second Adult to support our young people—sometimes in the tent/pray ground in the sanctuary, sometimes in the Sue Dickerman Hall. You do not have to plan ahead; just come and enjoy our amazing young people. Sign up here: Second Adult Sign Up. Thank you to everyone who has volunteered for this fun time!

Lenten Devotional 2025: Deep and Wide: Becoming Beloved Community

 

Again, this year, Edwards Church will create our own Lenten Devotional, with a reflection available each day during Lent. We need your creativity to make this happen! Your reflections could be in the form of a prayer, a poem, a paragraph, or a photograph. Our theme this year is “Deep and Wide: Becoming Beloved Community.”  Your Lenten Devotion could take many forms. Here are a few ideas:

  • Tell a story of a time you felt loved in community.
  • Talk about what the word “beloved” means to you.
  • Send a photo or drawing of a community that you love.
  • Tell a story about a struggle to feel part of a community.
  • Tell a story about how you came to be part of Edwards Church.
  • Tell a story about risking reaching out to people you didn’t know.
  • Tell about a time you felt welcomed into an unfamiliar community.

Each reflection includes scripture and a short prayer. Debbie is happy to add those to your reflection, or you can do that yourself. Your reflection does not need to be long. If you have a picture, you might choose to have only a very few words. In general, written reflections should be 200-500 words.

Sign up here or by emailing Debbie.
